Although this is the situation we’re dealing with, the bad thing is that there aren’t so many clear ways of finding out information about WiFi in hotels. While most hotel-listing websites will also give you some data about internet – whether or not it is available and if it’s free or not, there aren’t so many services ranking the quality of WiFi. Taking a look at the available options, we identified one such service that everyone seems to be talking about – Hotel WiFi Test....

If you are a Mac user, you have Apple Mail, the default email client pre-installed on your computer. While this native solution from Apple suffices the needs of most users, it is far from an ideal choice for those who need more control over their emails. Because, despite offering a set of all the essential features, Apple Mail’s functionality is limited in terms of advanced email management features when compared to most third-party email clients....

Like its predecessor, though, the new Acer Swift 7 has a few tradeoffs as well. The most critical one is the webcam which now pops up from the keyboard, similar to the Huawei MateBook X. That change has allowed Acer to achieve an impressive screen-to-body ratio of 92 percent. In addition, the Acer Swift 7 only has three ports — two USB Type-C and a standard headphone jack. Apart from that, the Swift 7 comes with a 14-inch 1080p screen, Intel’s latest 8th Gen Core i7-8500Y Amber Lake processor, 256GB or 512GB of PCIe SSD storage, 8GB or 16GB of LPDDR3 RAM, a backlit keyboard, and a Windows Hello fingerprint reader embedded under the power key....

People familiar with the matter told Bloomberg that the government is now not allowed to purchase ten Apple products including different variants of iPads and MacBook laptop. Several devices have been omitted from a government procurement list distributed by China’s National Development and Reform Commission and Ministry of Finance. Apple products seem to be the newest to be added to China’s blacklist. The government recently excluded foreign anti-virus products including Kaspersky Lab and Symantec Corp from its software procurement list last week....

To be clear, Airtel launched the data-only 4G LTE service in India back in April 2012, but it’s only now that they’re bringing voice support. Unlike most of the American and European countries, the commercial supported 4G band is the 2300MHz, popularly known as TD-LTE 40. China and India are the only two major countries where TD-LTE is supported for commercial use. Apple was the first major handset company to support this LTE band on their devices late last year with the launch of iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c....

Display – a 6.55-inch Fluid AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support on the OnePlus 8 and a slightly bigger, 6.78-inch panel on the Pro, which comes with 120Hz refresh rate, QHD+ resolution, and HDR10+ support along with MEMC for a seamless viewing experience. Besides, the two offer a blue-light filter and adjust the brightness accordingly for low-light environments to ensure some level of eye protection.

1. Similar… In design terms, the new Kindle Oasis follows the same slightly square-ish design path that its predecessor took – instead of uniform bezels on all four sides, there are relatively slim bezels on three sides and one extremely wide and thick side, with two buttons on it for turning pages – by default the key above moves the book a page ahead and the one below takes you to the previous page, but these can be reversed....

The Blackberry Venice offers both a trademark physical Qwerty keypad and a more convenient On-Screen keypad. The power button has been thankfully displaced from the top to the left side, just like most of the other smartphones. The most interesting aspect is the slider type formfactor which requires users to push the screen outwards in order to reveal the physical keyboard. Blackberry Venice doesn’t look compact and if we go by the photos, it seems to be bulky and tall....

It will be interesting to see how these mobile giants approach the watch interface. Watch, unlike many other things is something vast majority of us carry, so getting the design right is a challenge. How do you make something which is already doing quite well? As you would expect, we already see the difference in opinions here. While Motorola is going with the traditional round face design, LG has chosen the tried and tested square face....

You can now go on the updated beta.icloud.com website and create an Apple ID, if you didn’t have one yet. There, you will see a top bar notifying visitors that anyone can now use Pages, Numbers and Keynote. As a reminder, you should know that Apple made Mac OS X free along with iLife and iWork back in October, 2013. I don’t own any Apple devices, so this has been my first experience ever with anything related to Apple, and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised....

Display The display on the new MacBook Pro is Apple’s retina display that stretches 16-inches diagonally and offers a 3072 x 1920 pixels screen resolution at 226ppi, which is slightly higher than the 2880 x 1800 pixels found on the earlier 15-inch model. Further, comparing the 16-inch model with the 15-inch MacBook Pro, the newer model appears to be marginally bigger and heavier, but nothing too drastic. Keyboard One of the aspects where the difference becomes noticeable is Apple’s approach to this year’s keyboard....

The HomePod is a compact smart speaker that’s capable of doing everything you would possibly expect from a product of its class. Needless to say, it comes with support for Apple’s own virtual assistant Siri....

To be clear, the international warranty is applicable on unlocked iPhones only. The carrier-locked iPhones do not come under this package even if you unlock them with unofficial methods. Apple has always provided global warranty for products which are portable (with some applicable riders), except for the iPhone. That used to create a lot of confusion to the users. Thankfully, the new changes make it a level playing field for all devices....

AppShaker is a very simple app which does exactly what it promises. The good thing is, it runs as a background service waiting for any potential shakes on your smartphone. It makes use of the accelerometer, which has become a standard feature of many android smartphones. You can even select and calibrate the sensitivity of the shake through the settings screen. The developer claims that they have designed AppShaker to consume so less battery and memory, such that you will not even notice it running in the background!...

However, with the recent order from the Indian government last night (June 29), wherein it states banning a total of 59 Chinese apps from being used in India since these apps have “engaged in activities which are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of Indian, defense of India, the security of the state and public order” – as per a release from Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY), CamScanner users in India can no longer avail the service, and therefore, need to look for an alternative for the same....
